This is the single funniest excuse he could have come up with for not wanting to be booed in public
President Donald Trump will not be attending Super Bowl LX on Feb. 8 in Santa Clara, Calif., he said in an interview with the New York Post.
“It’s just too far away,” he said.

Another thing we saw in Chicago. They terrorize neighborhoods but pretend no one actually lives there. A man in my neighborhood just happened to be coming home during a CBP kidnapping and ended up with six broken ribs.
The 6-month-old that DHS is tweeting about here lived in the neighborhood and the baby’s father was just trying to evacuate his family after federal agents had shot someone.

Members of Congress should be openly stating right now that military action against Greenland will result in impeachment and removal of the President and the Vice President.

Next up: a phased system of tax credits available to victims of ICE harassment with incomes under $75K who were brutalized in calendar year 2025 & have been enrolled in community college for a year or more but less than four years, notwithstanding other deductions.
I am introducing the Quick Recognition (QR) Act, which requires ICE and CBP officers to wear uniforms featuring QR codes. When scanned, the code would generate a digital ID displaying the officer’s name, badge number, and law enforcement agency.
ICE should be unmasked both physically and digitally.

this is all it’s really about for them. Not domestic policy, not “economic anxiety”, just an endless desire to punish stand-ins for the Mommy who forced them take a bath, even if it tanks their own quality of life.

You gotta realize, they should be ascendant right now. They control every branch of government. The Maduro thing was seen as a _win_ to them. They are barely a year into this illegitimate presidency and they're despondent.
Remarkable thread at the other place of MAGA/Cons lamenting at increased political pushback from their families.

The guy who shot Marimar Martinez, which resembles Renee Good's shooting in many ways, shouted "Do something bitch" as he shot her.
He is also a weapons instructor.

In the video that the shooter took, which I believe was leaked to be exculpatory, he appears to yell “fucking bitch” after he shoots Renee Good.

You mean running the democrat playbook of stabbing the left flank of your party in the back over and over again while never delivering anything and trying to appeal to the right wing by conceding every argument to their framing is stupid, reckless, and will never work? Who could have known?
Glad the FT is asking the question. Even if I’m not convinced they found a compelling answer.
I get that Starmer & Reeves are unpopular, I really don’t understand the extent of the dislike.

The shift from "sir this is a Wendy's" to "just put the fries in the bag" indicates a cultural rightward shift; whereas the former is making fun of someone by implying they're a customer doing too much, the latter is making fun of someone by implying they're a *worker* & should know their place
